Hi guys!
I bought my unit last december2011 and had it rooted and flashed the bulletproof rom.
I'm thinking of upgrading the software by using the official htc ics upgrade.
My questions are :
1. Is it possible to install the update even with the rom i'm using, bulletproof.
2. If i did download and install, is there a possibility that may device will be bricked?
3. If my unit got bricked, will the shop where i bought my unit knew that i had it rooted if i am to claim that it had been bricked because of the ics update that i installed, to get it replaced?
Hope you could help me on this.

1. You could try, just by searching for a update in settings, about phone, system update.
2. THe device wouldn't brick, but assuming you have s-off it would probably wipe that. And at the moment you can't s-off hboot 1.27.0000 which the ICS firmware updates it to. So your limited to the amount of custom roms you can install. But if your just looking for stock ics you'll be fine
3. Depends on the shop.
Hope I helped!

Hi Zdos!
Thank you for this. Now i feel a lot better. I'm still waiting for the official htc ics update to be released in the Philippines but was afraid to try it because of the possibility of bricking my device. I've watched one video earlier wherein the guy's sensation xe got bricked because he tried installing the official ics update on his rooted device.
I'm not that techie but i love my sensation xe, helps me on my work. Still got lost in the technical terms in the thred though.

Maybe to be on the safe side install the gingerbread stock rom, you are more likely to get the update quicker as well. Just hit the thanks button! Happy to help
Zdos,
This is actually the details of the rom that i installed.

Ok,
I'm not sure if the update will come through to your rom. So I think you should look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21711154#post21711154 follow the instructions, and you will have a Sensation XE with ICS http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849 is probably the best rom to use.

Those details won't suffice to determine what you need for flashing ARHD ...
As you are running custom Rom I can say that you are soff...but to be sure can you post a screen shot of your bootloader that would be pretty helpful.
Also post your cid ...this you can get it by fastboot command
"fastboot getvar cid"
(Assuming you have fastboot/adb setup)
Also there is the best noob proof guide for flashing ARHD...chk that then you can flash any custom Rom easily

You can't install official ota ics update with custom Rom. It must be stock Rom with stock recovery.
Soff will stay same after update so not important you don't need to s-on to get ics.

I have yet to flash the ARHD zip file. after i updated the firmware, i tried to open the phone to delete the file but the device did not go through the normal booting process, instead it just keep rebooting after the logo flashes. any ideas why?
These are bootloops.. Which file did you want to remove ? Did you really installed the 3.32 firmware before flashing the rom?

Hi,
Yes,you can flash Sensation ROMS on Sensation XE.
It does matter whether it's GB or ICS,beccause they require different firmwares.
ARHD is good ICS ROM.
Yes you can... Sensation and xe are the same phones with a different cpu clock... And beats obviously

simply put
MOBILE hardware ----talks with-----firmware-----talks with-----ROM
now for GB there is GB firmware(s)
also for ICS there is ICS firmware(s)
and GB firmware cant run ICS ROMS
ICS firmware cant run GB ROMS
so to move from GB to ICS ..you need to update your firmware to an ICS one
to chk your firmware
settings->about phone->soft ware information->build number
if its 1.xx... then its GB firmware
for ICS you need to have 3.32.xx firmware

How did it fail? What did it say?
My suggestion is that you run the process again but look at your serial number carefully and also copy and paste the beta key provided when you entire in the serial number into the revolitionary tool box when it asks for it to reduce any chances of error.

Hi Sensation lover,
The Zerging root says, it failed to get root. The Beta Key gets accepted. Hence I am sure my serial number and beta key are correct.
Thanks again for your support.
Thanks,

Sometimes its best to copy and paste beta key into area to assure its exact. I'd try to start process again and be absolutely sure ALL numbers are correct.get new beta key, copy paste key see if it helps. Revolutionary is pretty straight forward. Just make sure numbers are exact! You should be good to go then. good luck!

Hi All,
In the process of upgrading, I bricked it I belive.
My phone just loops now while booting. The HTC screen comes and then goes back to the booting mode.
I have a fresh micro sd card as well. Now I need to restart the phone.
When I try to HBoot the phone, the message says as Model ID incorrect. I understand that this is due to the incompatible zip file in the root folder.
Can some one guide me to get the right image file? I tried many threads with no success.
Looking forward..

Hi,
What ROM did you try to load?
Did you superCid?
It is step 4 of the s-off guide.
This will avoid Model incorrect ID problem.
the ONLY difference between the two phones is the colour of the back door/battery cover
and the red capacitive buttons..

What firmware are you running on?
I advice you to check here if you are running on the correct firmware:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412618
You need to use tacoroot method to get around the Zerging root failed message. Use this guide.
Except, use
Code:
adb shell chmod [COLOR="Red"]777[/COLOR] /data/local/tacoroot.bin
Instead of
Code:
adb shell chmod [COLOR="Red"]755[/COLOR] /data/local/tacoroot.bin
Then, after the S-Off, you need to follow the normal steps to install the ROM, as previously stated.

escpecially in S-ON devices after flashing a custom rom if the smartflash feature(4ext recovery) fails(you notice that when the device is trying to boot the rom and it is bootlooping)then the only option is to flash the boot.img of the rom manually

I am still S-ON and I flash whatever roms I like. It is very difficult to hard brick your phone if you're S-ON. If however you're S-OFF, you can potentially screw up your phone. So no worries about bricking if you're S-ON (unless you do something really really naughty!!!).

To any users who are even slightly tempted to flash this onto your Sensation, it will brick your phone so don't even try it. If you do and it bricks your phone, do not come to me for sympathy because I will just laugh at you. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
The Problem,
Since JellyBean releases HTC have added extra protection around their RUU's making the rom.zip file still getable from the RUU but with what bender_007 says are extra bytes - this means that any attempt to extract the system.img gives a CRC error.
This is not particuarly my area of expertise so I hope those with more knowledge/ideas will come and discuss this

nah..you can't flash it , but you can try to. The app has too some conditions on flashing .
We can override the conditions, someone would flash it and then dump the image.
Does this sound reasonable enough ?

Hi,
Look HERE
The key to flashing custom ROMS with s-on,is to use the "Smartflash" in the 4 EXT recovery.

Hi,
Going to supercid will not break your gprs.
Did you search the ROM thread or ask in there about gprs?
